Aubrey first discovered Pilates as a teenager training with a classical ballet company in Houston TX and expanded her practice while earning a B.A. in Dance at the University of Alabama. After moving to New York City to pursue a dance career, her passion for more in-depth knowledge of the body and movement drove her to become a certified Pilates instructor.
Pilates sessions build strength, flexibility and lean muscle tone by emphasizing a solid body core and aligning the spine, rather than repetitive bulking which shortens the muscles. It centers the mind with focus and concentration. A healthy "mind-body connection" in harmony organically creates spiritual well-being.

Hands down one of the best instructors in NYC! Alexia Simmons has a deep understanding of The Pilates method and in her beautiful private studio you feel the care and precision that she puts into her work. Motivating, fun, and intent on changing the body, I’m in the best shape of my life! I am always amazed by her intuition as to what my body needs that day. Pilates Perfect Studio is clean, and location is ideal. Definitely a cut above!

I’m not an online person but Alexia is so amazing that I have to say how wonderful she is. I have back problems and my daughter said try Pilates too for it. I got introduce package and it sounds crazy but swear to you my back was better than for years! Pilates balances out the muscles and bones and it works for real! I love alexia too, she is so rally caring and means it.

After taking her career as a senior instructor and building the success at other studios, Alexia finally decided to open her own studio. She is hard/heart working, believes in the work of Pilates and how it can benefit and heal clients and she is passionate about her craft. You must train with Alexia in her boutique Pilates studio. Your body will thank you. Most importantly, you will thank her for her encouragement, support and knowledge after she completely changes your body.

I've taken sessions all over the US and this cozy studio is one of those rare gems that teaches the classical Pilates system the way it was intended. The studio is the ultimate for one-on-one instruction, complete with top of line equipment. Do yourself (and your body) and favor and get into Alexia's schedule!

I have taken a lot of different exercise classes over the years and many have claimed to be Pilates, but Alexia Simmons at Pilates Perfect is an authentic Joseph Pilates instructor. She holds firmly to Joseph Pilates’ original method. I have been going for several months and have gotten great results. Not only do I feel stronger but I have more energy. I notice it when I’m carrying groceries or working in the yard. My teenage daughter noticed my flat abs and now she’s going to Alexia, too! Alexia is a hands on, committed and encouraging instructor, and she challenges me which always boosts

Ideal environment and quality instruction for me. When I seek out a teacher, I want someone who has the purest version of the information that I am looking to learn and a delivery method that is structured but flexible to my specific needs. I found both at Pilates Perfect with owner, Alexia Simmons. I also love that the studio feels like my own private facility. Can’t wait to go back and continue my work with her.

I began taking pilates in 2001 while living in Southern Florida as I read that it was great for rehabilitating body injuries and to help with back issues. I started with private sessions, which I really liked but as it began to become more popular & expensive, I switched to taking classes. For me I did not feel like I was getting the same benefits with classes as I did in private sessions so I stopped going. After moving to NYC I tried many places and recently found Pilates Perfect. I am so happy to have found this studio! The private classes are affordable & provide the true teachings of Joseph

I’ve been going to Alexia for about 6 months. Her studio is a tony high-end and beautifully designed space. It’s on a quiet block right near the park which is great, because I find that a nice walk after her torture (just kidding!) makes me feel like I was young again. I love my sessions with her!! The equipment is kept as if it’s new and the amenities are generous. Alexia is a brilliant instructor, her cues and intuitions about things in my body that I can’t believe she knew is uncanny! But what I really want to say is that you will not find a more professional, passionate, thoughtful

If you’re a serious practitioner of Pilates— real Pilates— then you would do well by your dedication to visit Alexia’s beautiful, private studio! I don’t usually employ cliches, simply because I expect results from my people and business intercourse; here, though, I enthusiastically break my own rule because it begs to be said of her Pilates Perfect: THIS GEM OF A PILATES STUDIO IS ONE OF THE BEST KEPT SECRETS ON THE UES.”
Perhaps because it’s just off Madison it doesn’t get the eyeballs, yet the instruction and results of this top-notch master rivals any of the other “name”
